问题
Lots of questions out there on trying to get NVCC to use the intel compiler. It doesn't work, I get that.
The most common answer that people give is to compile the device code into a library using NVCC/cl.exe and then compile the host code separately and link them. I'm attempting this, but am getting nowhere.
In VS2012 I have created a solution with 2 projects - one CUDA, the other a console application.
I have set the CUDA project to compile with VS2012 into a static library. It compiles no problem.
I have set the console application to intel 14.0 and to compile as an exe. I have also added the correct path to "Additional Library Dependencies" and have told the compiler about the CUDA library through "Additional Dependencies" (where I also told it about cudart_static.lib).
Build dependency is also set to compile the CUDA project first.
However, this setup is no good. Gives me an error which even google is at a loss for:
Error 5 error MSB4057: The target "ComputeLegacyManifestEmbedding" does not exist in the project. C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\V120\Platforms\Win32\PlatformToolsets\Intel C++ Compiler XE 14.0\Toolset.targets 1162 7 rxnCalc_cpp
To verify that the linking is ok, if I set both projects to compile via VS2012 I get no problems.
OS - Windows 7 64bit (32bit application though)
Platform - VS2012
Cuda Toolkit - 6.0
Cuda Compute Version - 5.0 (and compiled as such)
So, am I just wasting my time or is there something I'm missing? It seems I have gone through a hundred posts, but I have yet to see a single success. Lots of people anxious to tell you that this is what you should do, but no one to tell you how to do it!
回答1:
For everyone out there using windows and trying to get CUDA and the intel compiler to co-operate, see my initial question on how I set up the solution.
To get it to work, as per Roger Dahl's suggestion, I changed the CUDA project to a DLL.
This involved the following modifications:
Change CUDA project to dll
Add __declspec(dllexport) to CUDA wrapper function
Point console linker to the DLL lib file
This works and I am now able to utilize all intel compiler optimizations.
However, please note, I did need to set the intel compiler to only do single file IPO. Multi file IPO will cause errors, this was somewhat expected.
Hope this helps others in the same boat.
